Following the creation of full-length ballet, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Documentary which follows the creation of the Royal Ballet's first full-length ballet with a newly commissioned score in 20 years, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

This documentary follows the creation of the Royal Ballet's first full-length ballet with a newly commissioned score in 20 years, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland choreographed by Christopher Wheeldon. 

The film follows the making of the work through Alice's eyes, principal dancer Lauren Cuthbertson, exploring the intimate process of creating a major and complex work of dance. The Royal Opera House, Covent Garden is her 'wonderland' as we follow Lauren's experiences, through rehearsals to taking the ballet out of the studio and getting it on to the stage.
